Capture is not filing

The fastest way to make a life organiser annoying is to force a category, date, priority and project onto every thought the second it appears.

Quick Capture is intentionally forgiving. Put the thought somewhere safe first. Decide what it means when you have the headspace.

What belongs in Inbox

Anything you are not ready to classify belongs there: a possible task, a link to revisit, a future goal, something somebody mentioned, or a half-formed idea.

Inbox is a temporary decision queue, not a measure of how organised you are.

Sort deliberately

When you sort an item, choose what it becomes: task, calendar item, note, reference, waiting item, someday task, goal idea, win or lesson.

Life, Sorted. does not silently move or delete captured items. You make the decision.
